LYRICS:
“Three steps ’til metamorphosis is complete.“
Waking to the blaring alarm
Reading ’little bit over 5:55 AM
Prying my eyes open through the tiredness
Hah... it’s time to get up
Say hello to a new day in the mirror
The unfitting limbs and the hideous demeanour
Harsh gazes and judgemental whispers
Once again fill my head with doubt
Can’t breathe, in a chokehold, wanna tear down
Strip outta this cocoon somehow
Eyes to eyes with reflections in the mirror
Warping, twisting suddenly, they whisper to me:
“Have you ever tried to break free, tell me“
“Have you ever tried to find out“
“Who you could be?“
Eyes to eyes with reflections in the mirror
Warping, twisting suddenly, they reach out to me:
“What to make of those nights you’ve spent crying?“
“What to make of praying for a purpose“
“To fall asleep!“
La-di-dey-da la-di-dey-da di-da duh-da
La-di-dey-da, duh-da-
Ah uh oh, mirror please!
La-di-dey-da la-di-dey-da di-da duh-da
“Two steps ’til metamorphosis is complete.“
Picking at the scabs that I’ve used to stop the hurting
But it’s gotten worse
How long will they keep growing?
Numbness is a feeling I’m used to -
I keep telling myself that
But how long will it keep going?
I bind them underneath a tough shell of confidence
Just to earn a taste of a slice of the normalcy
Then I let them out at night ashamedly
To lick my wounds in a darkened corner for some relief!
Can’t breathe, in a chokehold, wanna tear down
Strip me outta this cocoon right now
Somehow
Can’t breathe, in a chokehold, wanna tear down
Just free me from this hell right now!
Eyes to eyes with reflections in the mirror
Warping, twisting smilingly, they’re beckoning me
“I am what will make you complete“
“I am the forbidden key to that esoteric dream!“
Reaching out to reflections in the mirror
Warping, twisting smilingly, they welcome me in
“You know exactly what you’ve been hiding from“
“Come now, embrace that tortured voice and“
“Let it sing!“
La-di-dey-da la-di-dey-da di-da duh-da
La-di-dey-da, duh-da-
Ah uh oh, mirror please!
La-di-dey-da la-di-dey-da di-da duh-da
“One step ’til metamorphosis is complete!“
Hah oh, hah oh
La-di-dey-da, at last, I can finally breath!
“Now the metamorphosis is complete.“
